Whipphound remains 5lb higher than when winning over 7f here in June while Lord Buffhead and Methaaly are closely matched on their latest running over track and trip. The latter came out just the best on that occasion but a chance is taken on GAELIC WIZARD in this. He finished second to a higher rated horse in a seller the last time he raced over course and distance and has dropped 8lb in the weights since. Time To Begin is another on the slide and Molly Jones could make the frame.
